Microsatellite instability and loss of heterozygosity in oral squamous cell carcinoma in Malaysian population
Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) and microsatellite instability (MSI) have been documented as important events in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). Five microsatellite markers D3S192, D3S966, D3S647, D3S1228 and D3S659 were selected on chromosome 3p because of high frequency of alterations reported i...
